The team leap into action when they believe that a terrorist who has been on the wanted list for 25 years has re-entered the country. Bloom and Martha believe that Miriam Brolin is actually terrorist Nadia and need her to admit to being an accomplice of fellow terrorist Marco Robson. As the team enlist the help of DCS Robert Thacker, who was the original cop on the case, they discover that Miriam/Nadia was once an undercover cop who never returned to the fold.

Intriguing premise for the episode with shades of “Inception” and it’s multi-level world with the Unit discovering that Miriam is three different identities, the fact that Miriam has been unable to give up her undercover role is clearly something Bloom can strongly identify with. Jenny Seagrove hasn’t been seen much on TV in recent years but is still going strong. Some interesting developments in the dynamic between Bloom and Martha too, it’s becoming increasing clear that she is sexually attracted to Bloom and isn’t overly happy about it either.
